a field for Pattern and IMAC, along with normal flying. I attached a
crude drawing in paint. What do you guys think? Any improvements? The
runway paralles an access road that is dirt and is only used for
driving around the property during the week and not much then. Over
flight area is about 300 acres and the nearest house is about ¸ mile
out center and none on either end. The field faces almost due north so
sun will not be a problem. I proposed a 80x600 runway of smooth grass
with somewhat smooth over runs.<SPAN>
